"Penso che non esistano parole per dire quanto è bella questa canzone" grande passo avanti per il sottoscritto nel suonare una canzone cosi’ stupenda. Un grandioso applauso ai Pestilence! La canzone

è corretta, però non ho ancora bene capito gli accordi del Pre-chorus sono giusti… comunque la canzone si mantiene su queste note… ed ora a voi il piacere di suonare Presence Of The Dead…”
